Grant to implement Do-It-Yourself Guide in your classroom

Do-It-Yourself Grant Application period opens on July 20th and closes on Sept 5th at 11:59 PM PT.

The purpose of the DIY Grants is to help us enhance the replicability of the DIY guides as well as their adaptability to a range of school types, locations, and grade levels. Toward that end we are looking for teachers who work in school environments different from those of the ADEs who created them.

Limit one application per person.

Grantees will receive:

Up to $1000 DIY Grant

Each grant amount will be calculated based off of the fixed and variable cost of the selected DIY with a $200 teacher stipend. The equation is: (Fixed Cost) + (Variable Cost * # students) + $200 teacher stipend

When possible, we will highlight your implementation of the DIY guide on the ADE website, our social media channels, or other outlets

Grantee responsibilities:

Provide comments on how they adapted the DIY to work in their classroom

Provide photos of their classroom’s implementation of the DIY

Respond to information requests from the ADE program on at most, a bi-weekly basis
